N1CK Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Thanks, and I like that anubias . I reckon you should chuck a big earthworm in there as well.... I think black cable ties might have worked been better though. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah im keeping at as like a species tank, so just 3 species and good amounts of them - loaches for the bottom, tiger barbs for activity, and the firemouths. the sens are just way to cool for school, so they get to stay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
